“The premise of the program at the University of Foreign Military and Cultural Studies (UFMCS) is that people and organizations court failure in predictable ways, that they do so by degrees, almost imperceptibly, and that they do so according to their mindsets, biases, and experience, which are formed in large part by their own culture and context. The sources of these failures are simple, observable, and lamentably, often repeated. They are also preventable, and that is the point of ‘red teaming’.
This book made me rethink how we should look at operational success. Very rarely do we consciously red team our own operations but it is absolutely crucial. Red teaming does not only apply to operations but can be used in any challenge one applies yourself to.
The book presents the fundamental system models and methods with an application to real life. Know how to use systems thinking at work, in your business, in your relationship, friendships. Some things in life can’t be fixed with a simple “you did this so I did that” thinking. By applying conventional thinking to complex problems, we often perpetuate the very problems we try so hard to solve. The book also helps you to see through the hidden pathways of contemporary politics, economics, and education changes
